Update on Amy's Eye...


Amy called this morning. She chatted about their fun vacation still in progress, and I had to ask about her eye. She said it is much worse this morning. As soon as she completed the oral steroid a couple of days ago, it immediately took a downward turn. She has gotten another round of steroid pills to take and then will see the doctor here in Pensacola on Monday. The group where she goes is referring her to a retina specialist in the group so perhaps he will know something or try something that her ophthalmologist hasn't thought of. She is hurting but sounded good and said they are having a great time. They were leaving Gatlinburg when she called and are headed to Cherokee, NC to visit the Indians per Joshua's request. They are LOVING their travel trailer and have only eaten one meal out which was at the Dixie Stampede on Tuesday night. She was proud of that as the home-cooked meals figure into their food budget and they aren't "eating" up their vacation funds. Ha! At any rate, I would appreciate your continued prayers for Amy. Please pray that the different doctor might know something different to do. Amy's faith is strong, her spirits are good, and she is trusting God ~~ whatever His will is. As she said, it could be worse. At least this isn't life-threatening; just sight-threatening. God is good ~~ all the time!! ~~Amy's Mom
